CHICAGO, Nov. FL am afraid it
won't emo here said Michael Schwab,
when he heard that all was over. ~
an afraid the working men of the cOun
try will hereafter have no respect for
the law" But Michael, dear boy, was
wrong in this as he was in his present
harrangue. He and Fielden were sent
of to Joliet at o'clock, and as may be
imagined the leave takingS of their fam
lies and the distress of the widows and
orphans of those who were hanged
formed very striking picture in the
frame of grim determination of the
friends of them all TO make the most Of
Sundays funeral opportunity. Mrs.
Schwab. accompanied by Mrs. Schnau-'
belt and Schwab'S two pretty little
children, called at the Jail this morning
10 bid farewell to her husband. The
afflicted wife of Schwab was pale and
heT eyes were swollen: and red with
weeping.
Her White Face
was rendered dOubiy sorrowful and
mournful 10y the heavy mourning
drapery hanging down her back. Her
dress was OF the same sOmber material,
and as she crossed the Jail yard from the
side entrance to the Jail Office she pre-
scented picture of woe. Her head was
inclined in front and her eyes were
riVited at the stony surface of the Jail
court floor as she passed over it. When
within thirty feet of the steps she
stopped, cast her eyes ahead, and with
Il shudder buried her face in her black
glOyed hands There. i'll front of her,
under the stairway, in plain sight, were
the four painted collins into which the
four victims of the hangman were low
cred Yesterday. Three of the c0ffins
lay OH top of each other while
The one in which Spies shrOuded
form was lowered lay apart from the
rest. 1t was grim reminder of the
terrible scenes of yesterday. But she
passed on and around at the foot of the
steps. Here she paused again. and, bit
ing her lips 10 keep back her fast rising
tears. she mounted the steps. Mrs.
Schnaubelt, who lisa very 1leshy woman,
followed closely behind, and the two lit
lie children, clad in dark red plush
suits, trimmed with fur. crawled up the
cold iron steps on their hands and
knees. DOorkeeper Pierce promptly
admitted the four, and the two women

bars. shriliy piped:
Papa, Oh, Papa
The juvenile voice sounded through
the corridor and echoed along, and the
cells around and above seemed to grasp
the sound and send the echoes bound
ing through and around tine corridors.
Schwab looked out of his cell, and saw
his little son. His long arms went up
to his thick, black hair, and he pressed
his hands to his thrObbing brOws.
When the floor cleaning was finished
Schwab was let cut of his cell, and the
cage door admitted Mrs. Schwab TO the
big inclosure, and Schwa5 and his wife
were near each other, but with cruel
iron screen between them. Schwab's
eyes were moist, and his wife'S
high cheek bones were marked
with two fiery eyed spots
and she breathed hard. 1t was the last
parting before the close of the stony
walls on Schwab for life. Mrs. Schnau-
belt and Schwab's wife sat OF chairs
provided for them, and fearful last in
terview took place. Schwab requested
that his little ones he allowed inside,

small faces in tie bushy black whisk-

innocents. that they were seeing their
father for the last time. In few mo

other and uttcring glad cries and lau gh-
ing al the strange looking cells arc und

ugly and OminOus coff1ns which so
startled Mrs. Schwab had been
by this time removed. The little
frail woman would surely have tainted

brown boxes. She carried her youngest
child in her arms, which seemeed too

talk of three-quarters of an hour the
women were told that time was up, but
they begged so piteOusly for just
minute more that the jailer gave in and
said. ''Ill let you see your husbands in
